[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Loving my new purchase. Thrilled with the additional bowl included. I also purchased the ice cream bowl - yum!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This mixer replaced my old standard one, and I honestly didn't expect much — but I'm really impressed by its power. I mainly use it for baking cakes and making bread, and it performs incredibly well. Compared to my previous brand, this one is much stronger, and I rarely need to use the highest speed. It mixes thoroughly — every bit of dough is well incorporated.
It also comes with a variety of beaters, which makes tasks like whipping cream effortless. I love that it's heavy too — it stays firmly in place while mixing, unlike my old one that I had to hold steady.
Even my husband, who doesn’t cook at all, commented on how stylish it looks and asked me to leave it out on the counter as a display piece!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this during the recent sale so I was very happy with the price and excited as this is my first KitchenAid stand mixer. It's been great so far!
Features like the twist-to-lock bowl (which were new to me) are fantastic and easy to use. The speed adjustment is simple to control and the connecting/disconnecting beater/dough hook etc is extremely easy to the point where I wondered if I was doing it correctly. That's probably the biggest compliment I can give - it's easy to use - and that's a very valuable feature!
The bowl is a great size and I am very pleased I didn't opt for the smaller model.
I'm interested in exploring some of the add-on extensions you can purchase - I think that those options really elevate the product and really extend its value as a functional centrepiece in a kitchen.
One sad note - I am disappointed in the quality of the paint job, there is a small pointy paint drip on the base which is a bit annoying and the hinge area edges have bare metal showing. It's only small but it's a frustration that at this price point I expected better.
I would recommend this to a friend!

That's fantastic to hear that you are enjoying the features of the stand mixer and that you've enjoyed using it so far. I would recommend our 3 piece pasta attachment for your first attachment purchase - the joy of making home made pasta is real!! https://kitchenaid.com.au/products/3-piece-pasta-roller-and-cutter-attachment-ksmpra
Our other most popular attachments I would recommend are our ice-cream bowl, ice-shave maker and metal food grinder. https://kitchenaid.com.au/products/ice-cream-bowl-attachment https://kitchenaid.com.au/products/ice-shaver-attachment https://kitchenaid.com.au/products/metal-food-grinder-attachment-5ksmmga
I am sorry to hear about the paint drip - this is not something we would expect. If you can call us on 1800 990 990 we would love to see how we could work this out for you!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Finally upgraded from old 10year mixer during the mother day sale and I’m in love. The artisan tilt-head stand mixer is a versatile and user-friendly appliance, perfect for both beginners and seasoned bakers. It’s incredibly easy to assemble, with simple click-in attachments that make switching between tasks effortless. The mixer comes with multiple paddles, including a dough hook, whisk, and flat beater, allowing you to tackle everything from bread to cake batter with ease. Cleaning is just as simple—most parts are dishwasher-safe or easily wiped clean, making post-baking cleanup a breeze.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just recently bought my 2nd Kitchen Aid, I love using it, it makes my work in the kitchen enjoyable and easy, I would not be without it in the kitchen and my adult son is now enjoying the bright red Kitchen Aid I had; whilst I am loving my new teal coloured machine.
